Imagine a middle class couple who are overextended on their credit cards and not sure how they are going to continue to afford the lifestyle they love, but can't pay for. This may describe you or some you know. The Box is a story of such a couple who finds a box with a button on their doorstep. Soon afterwards, a grossly disfigured man, Frank Langella, shows up and claims that all their money problems can be over. . . with the push of the button.
There is a catch. The Box stars Cameron Diaz and James Mardsen as Norma and Arthur Lewis, who soon find themselves with a agonizing temptation that leads them down a path of no return. The action, visuals, and dialogue, are quick and make you uncomfortable as you watch and listen to the unthinkable situation that the couple finds themselves in. But even more uncomfortable may be the nagging question in the back of your head: what would you do?
The Box is a strange, strange film, that is like no other I know of. Based on the 1970s short story called "Button, Button" by Richard Matheson, the movie also takes place in the 70s which would explain the wallpaper.
